Monthly Trivia!

Last month, I asked "In what city is the International Mother's Day Shrine located, and at what specific address?"
 
Gail Duman of Baker City, Oregon won!  Way to go, Gail!
 
This month's trivia question is:
 
"What happened on June 13, 1884 that has subsequently caused adults and children from that point forward, to yell and scream at the top of their lungs in sheer terror, and then, willingly repeat the entire experience?"
 
Be the 1st to answer this correctly and you will receive one of our collectible, not available to the general public, Hamster escaping his wheel t-shirts!

Final BootCamp of 2009!

Join Our Mailing List!Now's the time!  Your deadline is here!  Our last Destination Business BootCamp of the year is coming up on September 15-17.  This is the last time in 2009 to learn the entire strategy of becoming a Destination Business, all 14-steps, taught by me and my 260 page manual, here in Longmont, Colorado.  Best of all, attend in September and you will be able to implement what you learned in the 4th Quarter of the Year, and there isn't any business I know that couldn't use a great boost in 4th Quarter sales.  Click here to register for this last BootCamp, and remember, we can only take a maximum of 50 people!
 
Here's one other thing to think about:  Many of you have spouses or partners, you work together and make joint decisions in your business.  I believe it is nearly impossible for a husband-wife team (or two partners), to make logical, strategic decisions about their business during this economy when you don't understand the key concepts of reinventing your business into a Consumer Destination.  Put another way:  Both of you should be attending this BootCamp in September.
 
Think of this analogy:  It's a little like having two people in the same rowboat, both with oars in their hands, both rowing in the water, but one person is holding the wrong end of the oar.  Sure, both people are paddling in the water, and sure, both people are helping, and the boat is moving in the right direction, but wouldn't it be better, easier, and more efficient if both of you were rowing in the same manner?  Sure it would, and that's what happens when both of you are on the same page, working on the same strategy.
 
This is your time in 2009 to get your whole team (or just your husband or your wife) working together!  Register today!

Remember everyone:  We have tools that can help you in this economy!  Working harder is NOT the answer, but attracting more customers with more money IS!  That's where becoming a Destination is so important!  Don't put off attending our September 2009 Destination BootCamp.
